Mosbeau Products now available in the UAE

By On 4:55 AM
Hi friends and readers of my blog yourpocketbeauty.blogspot.ae.



I would like to inform you that I am now a distributor/ authorised dealer of Mosbeau products here at the UAE. I haven't try this but I will start and make a test so I can share it to the readers of this blog. I've just decided to use this because my skin looks dull and pale since I moved here in Dubai. Maybe because of the weather and hot water which makes our skin easier to get old.

I just realized that I need protection for my skin when I saw my pictures 2 to 3 years ago. I looked very young during those times. I was using METathione supplements when I was in Philippines. This supplement really works on my skin and effectively whitens and makes my skin radiant. But when I moved here in Dubai, I stopped using glutathione supplements because I cannot find the best brand which really works for me. I've tried GlutaPOWER of Royale, but instead of lightening my skin, it gives me reverse effect. Mosbeau is product from Japan and have a very good review. I hope that this will also works on me

Anyone who's also interested on the products, kindly send me an email to mruthdayao@yahoo.com or contact me on my personal phone at 0555178022 for faster negotiation. You may visit our facebook page for the updates and rates of all products: https://www.facebook.com/mosbeauproductsuae

Clarisonic Mia 2 - Acne Cleanser Kit

By On 10:54 PM
Here's my personal review for Clarisonic Mia 2. I bought the ACNE Kit for me and my husband 4 months ago because we always have seasonal breakouts especially when the weather will change here in Dubai. This is only my chance to give review when I discover that this really works on my skin.

Clarisonic Mia 2 - Acne Kit

At first use, I just notice that my skin lighten maybe because of the deep cleanse happening while the brush is rotating for 1 minute.

On first 1 to 2 months, my co-worker saw the difference that my skin is not dull and lighten (blooming). I was just thinking that, it "should" because CLARISONIC is not cheap anyway so for me this is just a normal effect.

Until I took Fish Oil supplement for losing weight since I am going to gym and taking L-Carnitine Supplement. I have read that L-Carnitine have an excellent effect if I will take this with fish oil. After 2 days of taking this supplement and forgot to use clarisonic in 2 consecutive nights too (sometimes I am lazy doing it), I notice that I have a big bump on my cheeks and then on my chin and then on my forehead!

I realize then that since I used Clarisonic, I never got this breakouts only just now in taking that fish oil. So I stopped taking fish oil since this is giving me acne and breakouts all over my face and start using clarisonic again. After 2 days, my acne was disappear like a magic :).

I just realize that you will not appreciate that effect of a certain product especially if you are use to it in giving you a good look until you stop using it. Yes it is expensive, but I am sure you will get a great looking effect on your skin. You will not worry anymore if tomorrow you will have breakouts. I haven't try their other formula but I am happy on this ACNE Clarifying Cleanser. Me and my husband are both using it. We bought 100 ml acne cleanserand 1 brush only which is included on MIA 2 worth 700 aed plus around $200. Since there is no supplier here in Dubai, I was happy to get this online at souq.com.

It's been 4 months and until now the bottle is not empty considering that me and my husband are sharing. It's really worth every single dirhams.

Country Club Hotel Dubai - Offering a Membership - FRAUD

By On 4:00 AM
I would like to share my experience that me and my husband encountered last week. I thank God that my husband didn't change his mind on his decision that whatever it will take, we will not avail their offer.

We are at WestZone Supermarket when a Filipina asked us to fillup a form for their raffle draw in Country Club Dubai. Since it's free so I've decided to complete the form by putting the correct details.

The day after that, someone called me on my mobile and told me that we are one of the lucky winners who can avail free dinner on their hotel. Just present a valid ID and should be willing to stay for 1 1/2 hour for a presentation. So I agreed and go to the said venue, date and time.

After reaching the hotel, I noticed that the place are very crowded and looks like there's a promotion happening. We feel that we are overdressed on the place because me and my husband are wearing formal attire (I am wearing black dress and high heels while my husband is wearing his office attire) while other guests are wearing shorts and jeans only. We usually go to an event in Hotel and I think our outfit is just right but not on that event (we think)!

After presenting our IDs we asked to sit and wait our turn to enjoy our meal. While we are waiting, I noticed a small cafeteria where each couples where partnered with one representative. They are seriously discussing something.

I remember that setup when I availed a fraud Insurance company, Family First, when I was in Philippines. Wherein the representative will discuss you the benefits, show you some presentation and computation.... That's why during that time, I can smell something fishy already. We want to leave until a guy introduced us to a girl named Angel. She doesn't have ID that's why I cannot track her profile over the net (hehe). She courted us on their bar where you can eat their FREE buffet. We we're disappointed because this is not the service I am expecting. It's only consists of 3 dishes with 1 soup, 1 rice and salad. And their drinks is only water. So in summary, we didn't enjoy our dinner because we are expecting something classy.

After eating our dinner, we went outside and meet Angel. She asked us to sit on the cafeteria and started to interview us regarding travels, our family and our lifestyles.

After 3 1/2 hours of discussions, YES! 3 1/2 hours wasted! Actually the offer was fine because the concept is once you will become a VIP Member of Country Club, You can enjoy a FREE stay for 7 days every year in all of their hotel worldwide! PLUS you can also exchange those 7 days to other hotel which is a member of DAE (Dial an Exchange) 4 and 5 starts hotel worldwide too. So in short, you can travel every year with free accommodations for 7 days yearly!

After asking us if their offer was good (their way to make you feel the excitement), the guy presented us the price of the membership and it costs AED 32,000. But he is giving us 20% discount so it will become 25,600 AED. 50% Downpayment (AED 12,800) while the remaining balance can be paid monthly.

Since me and my husband have plans for our wedding next year, it was very easy for us to decline that offer since this is actually not our priority this time. So that amount will really affect our budget for the wedding. So we told them honestly that right now, our money was already saved for the wedding next year. That's why we don't have money that we can provide right now. So they decrease and decrease the amount up to 16,000 AED for 15 years. and they only need AED 2,000 deposit just to reserve the slot. They computed it for 12 months so we only need to pay them 166.66 AED per month + AED 583.33 for 24 months for the remaining balance.

During that time, I already thinking that this is really a good deal but at the same time, I was thinking that how come that from 32,000 AED they made it less for AED 16, 000. Sounds unreal.

So after 3 times of adjusting the computation, we ended up on not availing the offer.

When we reached at home, that's when we realized that it might be fraud. I tried to google about this issue and found lots and lots of complaints about them. Thank God that he gave my husband a presence of mind not to loose our goal and to be firm in his decisions.

I am writing this for those people who got their invitation from Country Club Dubai. It would be better to refuse because you will just waste your time in listening with them. At the end of the day, you can still provide a travel and leisure to your family which is under your budget. And you will not decide to go for a holiday and vacation if you don't have budget right?

All trips and tours should be planned. No matter how expensive or cheap is your hotel, the most important is you will enjoy it because it is under your budget and you are with your loved ones.

In writing these keywords, I hope that you can reach my blog on the right time :)

My 2nd Digital Perm at Korean Salon - Dubai

By On 3:21 AM
Since I have chosen big curls on my first perm, the curls looses easily. So when Korean Salon offer their promotion, I grabbed the opportunity to redo my curls.


My hair after 5 months, 1st perm
























They gave me a 25% off on my 2nd perm. This time I chose small curls and up to my ears so the curls will lasts longer. I only paid 650 aed without hair color.


Here's is the result of what I want. Even though it's different on my 1st perm, I still love it because it gives more volume. But on the 3rd day after I wash it, I find it hard to manage so I went back to their Salon and my hair stylists showed me how to blow dry my hair.


She also cut some hair at my back so curls are more balance and well-done.

My hair after  5 months, 2nd perm








To all girlsies there who wants to try digital perm I would suggest to find a good salon first with good reputation and magnificent reviews. Searching at the internet, forums and blogs is the best thing that you can do to find answers to your questions and you will fortunately get tips according to their experiences.


For me, Korean does it well because of the product they are using. It is not cheap that's why you will just get what you are paying for. At the end of the day, you will be happy on the result and you won't damage your hair. The number rule you should consider before trying something is.... ASK AROUND!


My 1st Digital perm review

By On 2:34 AM

Since straight hair was become trendy, I am one of those girls who have a straight hair for so many years (over 10 years). I have a long-wavy hair before and having a straightening (relax and rebond) treatment every 2 years helps my hair in control. But due to hair loss (post partum for 2 times) my hair gets very flimsy and thin. That’s when I decided to curl my hair.


At first I am a bit confused because I don’t know how to take care of it. They said, you shouldn't comb or brush your hair to avoid damage. There is one Korean salon in Dubai specializing hot or digital perm. The price is expensive but I can say that it’s worth it. My hair never gets dry and the perm lasts for 5 months (it depends on the size of your curls). I made my 1st digital perm last March 2012 and it only lasts until August 2012 (5 months). Here’s my 1st digital perm in Korean Salon – Dubai.



It took me more than 5 hours including hair colors and costs me around 1,200 dirhams for the whole package.

This is what they recommended on my hair so it will give more volume. But this is not the final result - It might because I have very fine hair.


After long time of waiting, finally, I was amazed on the result. I got lots of compliments from my friends, FB friends, colleagues....


First two days, you are not allowed to wash your hair.
Here’s a photo of my digiperm after 2 days.(  night before I wash it)



















I used LOREAL Expert Liss Ultime which costs me 60 aed (this is what my hair stylist recommended me) I notice that some part of the curls loses.I applied the serum which they also recommended to use, but this will only gives you an oily effect but it helps your hair to prevent dryness.


So I tried other products and got this Studio Curl Power of LOREAL. It works well on my hair at first until I realized that mousse makes your hair heavy and loses curls more. It should have a bouncy and light effect and doesn't look flat.


TIPS IN TAKING CARE OF YOUR DIGITAL PERM:
2 things I am doing in making my digiperm lasts for many months....

- Use gentle shampoo and conditioner. I recommend LOREAL Liss Ultime but if it's out of your budget, you may also try HIMALAYA Herbal shampoo and conditioner; LOREAL Conditioner. I am also using Herbal essence shampoo but I notice that this makes my hair dry.

- After washing, just let your hair dry 50%. Then tie up your hair by twist and rotate it on your own hair and make a big bun. Let it stand for 15 to 20 minutes then remove your bun and enjoy you bouncy hair!
